Excerpt from Girl and Woman: A Book for Mothers and Daughters
We have recently awakened to the fact that the most important period in life as regards the formation of character, instead of being the first decade as always supposed, is really the years between childhood and maturity. But although the attention of parents and guardians is now focussed upon this season as one of supreme importance, especially as regards girls, the sources of information concerning it are few and far between. Aside from Dr. Stanley Hall's monumental work, the size and extent of which somewhat restrict its field of usefulness, all information upon the subject of girlhood is sparsely scattered over a wide territory of periodical literature, much of it being contained in psychological and pedagogical journals or similar places remote from the main-traveled road familiar to the general reader. Moreover, these articles are commonly written by specialists in language which requires some interpretation.
